Kagekiyo, From The Series Kunyo Juhachi Ban by Migata Toshihide is a notable work within the realm of Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Created by the artist Migata Toshihide, who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, this print is part of a larger series known as Kunyo Juhachi Ban, which translates to "Eighteen Great Kabuki Plays." The series is celebrated for its vivid depictions of famous scenes and characters from the traditional Japanese theater form known as kabuki.

The print "Kagekiyo" specifically portrays the legendary figure Taira no Kagekiyo, a warrior from the Heian period who is a popular character in Japanese folklore and kabuki theater. Kagekiyo is often depicted as a tragic hero, embodying themes of loyalty, honor, and the ephemeral nature of life, which are central to many kabuki narratives. Toshihide's rendition captures the dramatic essence of Kagekiyo, utilizing bold lines, intricate patterns, and vibrant colors to bring the character to life. The artist's attention to detail and mastery of the woodblock printing technique are evident in the dynamic composition and expressive features of the subject.

Migata Toshihide was a student of Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, one of the last great masters of the ukiyo-e tradition, and his influence is apparent in Toshihide's work. Toshihide's prints are known for their historical and cultural significance, as well as their artistic merit. The Kunyo Juhachi Ban series, including the "Kagekiyo" print, serves as an important cultural artifact, preserving the rich heritage of kabuki theater and the ukiyo-e art form for future generations.

Through works like "Kagekiyo," Toshihide contributed to the continuation and evolution of ukiyo-e, bridging the gap between traditional Japanese art and the modern era. His prints remain highly regarded by collectors and scholars alike, offering a window into the vibrant world of kabuki and the enduring legacy of Japanese woodblock printing.
